The dsc ptd1640u transformer came

Check the Output specifications on the transformer in question and note the power output or 'Secondary' format. If it is listed as 'VAC', then the transformer can be wired either direction, as it provides a low voltage ( 16.5 VAC ) alternating current power source for the alarm panel. If it provides 'DAC', polarity WILL matter and you may have to have a professional check your installation.

The PTD1640U output is 16 volts AC (alternating current) so there is no polarity to the wires. You can hook either wire to either terminal on the wall transformer.

DSC Power 832 blank keypad and cant shut off siren?

If the keypad on your DSC Power 832 goes blank when the alarm is tripped, there could be a few reasons for this issue. Here are some troubleshooting steps that you can try:
  1. Check the power supply: Make sure that the power supply to the alarm system is working correctly. Check the power connections, and ensure that the battery is charged. A weak battery or poor power connections can cause the keypad to go blank.
  2. Check the keypad connections: Check the keypad connections to ensure that they are secure and not corroded. Corroded connections can cause intermittent issues with the keypad.
  3. Check for damaged wiring: Check the wiring to the keypad to ensure that it is not damaged. Damaged wiring can cause the keypad to lose power intermittently.
  4. Test the keypad: Test the keypad to see if it is working correctly. Press each key on the keypad to ensure that it is responding. If any keys are not responding or are responding intermittently, there may be an issue with the keypad itself.
  5. Check for a faulty control panel: If the above steps do not resolve the issue, there may be a problem with the control panel. A faulty control panel can cause intermittent issues with the keypad.
If you're unable to troubleshoot and resolve the issue on your own, it may be best to contact a professional alarm system technician to diagnose and fix the problem.

PC 1565 House alarm system trouble

Man, I believe that the best decision for you is just to connect with the specialists from the company that installed you this security system. That will be much better than to search for help here. I have a system from https://ajax.systems// and when I have some troubles with this I always can connect with the specialists that fix any trouble during a day. That is great that their service is working so fast and my house is always under the protection. I also like the quality of pictures on their cameras, that is possible to see all the details of the face, for example.

What is the master code for a DSC pk5501 alarm

It depends on the alarm dealer that installed it since it was set by them when it was installed. The master code is never left something like 1234. You should call the last company to service the system. You can't typically default an alarm panel to put a code back to default.

How to turn the volume up on a dsc powerseries 433mhz home alarm

If you are referring to the siren or keypad tones or anything you can't. If the siren isn't loud enough then it may be a lack of power issue or you may need an additional one. 1 siren is usually adequate for most houses.

Could you maybe look for a brand and model on the system? Either on the keypad or on the system box (metal panel somewhere in the house)? Then maybe Google the brand and model, looking for a manual?

How to change the battery

If it is the PIR that uses 4 AA batteries, they are behind the circuit board. Grasp the sides of the board and lift up and away from the detector housing. The batteries should be at the top. See manual at link:
